For example, if the sidebar has a range of 0 through 100, position 50 is in the middle and the remaining positions is distributed equally along the sidebar.
  • the range of the sidebar may be set by default or changed by a user command.

For example, a user may set the minimum channel value to "0001" and the maximum channel value to "1000" through the remote controller 200. Also, the amount that the channel value increase or decreases may be determined through user interactions. For example, the user may set a coarse interval (e.g., an interval "1" between Channel 0005 and Channel 0006) and a fine interval (e.g., an interval "0.1" between Channel 0005-1 and Channel 0005-2) between two adjacent channels to be searched.
